Abstract

This document specifies requirements for mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs) in general and, in addition, those intended for specific applications such as use near live electrical conductors or operation in orchards where specific design requirements are necessary to address the risks associated with the intended use. It does not apply to passenger and goods lifts, hoists, fixed elevating work platforms, suspended scaffolding or mast climbing platforms.  Section 5 of this document provides variations of requirements for MEWPs that are specifically designed for use in orchards.  Section 6 of this document provides variations of requirements for portable MEWPs.  Section 7 of this document provides additional requirements for insulated MEWPs.  This document does not apply to any matter relating to firefighting equipment or to any matter relating to the vehicles upon which elevating work platforms are mounted, except to a vehicle which, while stationary, is a stable support for the extending structure.  NOTE 1 Appendix A provides a list of typical hazards associated with MEWPs.  NOTE 2 Appendix B provides explanatory notes on the changes to MEWP insulation that have been introduced in this revision.
